'Monster Hunter Freedom Unite' (PSP) Gets Final DLC This Week

Monster Hunter Freedom Unite, known in Japan as Monster Hunter Portable 2G, delivers over 500 hours of gameplay spanning 400 missions. Add in previously unreleased monsters, weapons and missions and you have the biggest Monster Hunter to date.

With over 500 hours of gameplay and previously unreleased monsters, weapons and missions, Monster Hunter Freedom Unite is set to be the biggest game of the series so far. Via Ad-Hoc functionality, players can experience the social gaming phenomenon that’s gripping Japan and adventure with up to three friends for a thrilling and savaging multiplayer hunting party. From devising the strategy to executing the attack, team play with your friends is going to be key to hunting down the ferocious beasts.

Monster Hunters can prepare for the ultimate fight with more than 2000 armour sets, 1500 weapons and 400 missions to choose and customise their characters from. Throughout the strategic gameplay players will be rewarded for their deep fighting combat sequences and tactics, encouraging them to seek out the more experienced Monster Hunters and team up in order to learn from their experience.

The final batch of Monster Hunter Freedom Unite DLC quests is going up this Friday, April 2nd. Not only will you have some of the most epic quests now available, tickets for new items, and the ability to play them 4-player co-op, they're all absolutely free. There's five brand new quests in all, each one a true challenge to your skill. In fact, unless you have a "G Rank" hunter, the guild girls won't even let you go on these quests for fear you would be turned into a hunter colored smear on the Great Arena floor.

The people in the town have put up new requests for strong hunters to help them solve their monster problems. You'll be doing everything from saving brides from Rajang, running to aide in the hunting of an Akantor, and even being put to the test in an event that truly defines the "Epic Hunting Quest."
